Polymorphisms in thymidylate synthase gene and susceptibility to breast cancer in a Chinese population: a case-control analysis.
(BMC cancer, 2006-01)
BACKGROUND: Accumulative evidence suggests that low folate intake is associated with
increased risk of breast cancer. Polymorphisms in genes involved in folate metabolism
may influence DNA methylation, nucleotide synthesis, ...
Sequence variations in DNA repair gene XPC is associated with lung cancer risk in a Chinese population: a case-control study.
(BMC cancer, 2007-01)
BACKGROUND: The nucleotide excision repair (NER) protein, xeroderma pigmentosum C
(XPC), participates in recognizing DNA lesions and initiating DNA repair in response
to DNA damage. Because mutations in XPC cause a high ...
